Yes, once it's "co-mingled" with marital money, it may not be privileged anymore.

Greedy troll.


I disagree, children are entitled to support until they turn 18. Any parent who has chosen to have a child( still a minor) and has no provision for them should be ashamed of themselves.


Point taken. I did not mean to include minor children. Of course minor children should be provided for. I was writing about adult children.

If the money is in trust, it is controlled by the terms of the trust. Very often a spouse does not have any standing in a family trust. The controlling document is the trust and its provisions, which divorce law cannot override.

when you learn to spell "advice" and "passed", then the terms of the trust might let you latch on to a couple of bucks, otherwise you just sound like a greedy troll.

No, that's why, in their wisdom, his parents put it in a trust-to keep it out of your hands

Umm, aren't you the same lady that just posted about your 24 yr old waitress daughter who engaged to marry a 29 yr old "loser"? Or are you a bored troll?

And can you type anything other than a run-on sentence?
